Ask and ye shall receive. Yubi is so darling. There really should be a dedicated Yubi thread.

 

Actually, there should be a 2019 Yubi CALENDAR. Tom?

Thank you for sharing, Tom.

Yes, writing with fountain pens returns gradually. Even some denim heads I know use FP's, mainly Kaweco. World is not so bad as I thought.

I guess I got carried away by the pens posted by Tom, Nishant, Zaddick and Ghost Plane!

How NOT to spend money. :lol:

 

Reminds me of a heavily embellished PoA Ludovico Sforza/WE Mark Twain.

My Blue Hour skeleton is back from MB with my first O3B nib and the result is really impressive:

And now a first writing sample with a French quote on Tomoe River and the Swan Illusion ink:

And the exchange was really fast, around 2 weeks to have the pen back with the O3B and without any issue from MB to have an O3B nib.

Thank you for the great news!

The rapid turnaround time without issues produced an outstanding result.

The handwriting sample and the photos are a pleasure to see.

Happy writing with your one-of-a-kind Blue Hour Skeleton!

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
